How To Find Free Video Guitar Lessons

By Payo W Perry

Certainly there are a lot of free video guitar lessons available on the internet now days, a simple search through You Tube will confirm this for you.

The quality of free video guitar lessons can vary greatly. For example the producer could be a professional teacher promoting a website or an amateur in his/her bedroom. However, not everyone can make quality video guitar lessons.

One of the main problems when learning from free video guitar lessons is that often complete series of lessons are not made. Rather it's just a taster or a lesson for a single technique or song. This can leave beginners learning guitar in dribs and drabs which is ultimately unsatisfying.

Because of this particular issue, some users find learning guitar this way to be a poor choice in the long run.

With some time and effort spent searching the web you will still find some excellent free video guitar lessons made available from quality teachers. Not only should you learn something useful there and then but also get an idea for what more there is to learn using their method

The main advantage and even purpose of free video guitar lessons must be that they give you the opportunity to try out the teaching method of a guitar website before you commit to a membership. If the lessons are of high quality, clear and precise, then it's easy to feel confident about spending some money to learn more.

Now how do we find these free video guitar lessons? Well the biggest resource is still going to be videos uploaded to You Tube followed by doing a search in Google. Hey, be aware that sometimes websites will falsely offer the 'carrot' of free lessons only as a gimmick to get you to their homepage where in fact you'll find none!

The bottom line is that if you want to learn a specific technique or song then trying to find a free video guitar lesson is a good idea but complete series of lessons are rare. If you are learning guitar from other sources such as 1-1 lessons or books then you could combine that with free video lessons as well.

Learning from lots of different sources is a good approach, just make sure one of them is a compete method which is being supplemented by the others. For example you could have 1-1 lessons and supplement them with the free video guitar lessons offered online.

The best news is as more and more guitar websites compete for your membership and attention, the number of free video guitar lessons is only going to increase in number and in quality.
